Awesome advice!

Ps- ill be in my shower/tub with Oz, Karl and the cats

Here's some advice from a former insurance agent. It's a bit of a long read, but excellent advice!

As a former Insurance Agent who has dealt with many storm events, I have a couple of suggestions.

1. Make sure everyone in the families phones are charged and on their actual body.If someone else cannot communicate, make sure they can.

2. If you live in a trailer or home without an interior bathroom or closet that does not have windows, right now, figure out where you are going to go. Go there in plenty of time before storms are set to arrive. You won't have time to safely get there if you wait until that time.

3. If you have insurance, take the time to walk around and video the items around your house. Open closets, drawers, cabinets and state the main items that are in there. Scan each room, pointing out antique items or items of high value. Do the same in garages or storage sheds. You will never remember everything if you would get tornado damage. If you have smaller irreplaceable items, pictures, urns with ashes of a loved one....take them with you to the safe place you are going. This does not take a lot of time and will save you so much time and frustration if damage should happen.

4. Make sure your friends, family and neighbors know where you are going to go for safety. If you need to be rescued , located or accounted for, someone needs to know where you are. You don't want emergency personnel or family wasting their time looking for you if you are safe somewhere.

5. If you have a basement or another safe space with room for others, offer friends, family or neighbors shelter if they dont have any of their own.

6. If you live in a trailer or are in a car and you wait until the last minute or can't get to someplace safe. Lay in a ditch with a blanket or something over you instead of staying in a trailer or car.

7. It's just "stuff" folks, do not risk injury or death trying to get something you forgot.

8. Be sure to take pets to safety with you.

9. Be sure to have water, easy to grab food that does not have to be refrigerated or cooked in a reachable area. It may take time for rescuers to find you and long waits for restoration of utilities, even if you personally were not affected.

10. BE PATIENT if the worst case scenario happens. Resources are very limited when these things happen. If you and your family are unharmed and safe, just sit still and let others be cared for that weren't so lucky. Last week in Kokomo, people were losing their minds over 10 hours without electricity,it could be days in these situations. If you have medicine or life saving equipment that has to be plugged in, HAVE A PLAN in place. Don't be putting others in danger because you were not prepared!!! Meds can be placed in a cooler full of ice, if you don't have a long lasting battery for your equipment, head to a hospital or someplace else with a generator. Your failure to plan, should not become an emergency for someone else.

11. This is all worst case scenario and we always think it won't happen here, to us, but it can. If you are prepared and nothing happens....what do you lose????

12. Pray this is just a little Ole thunderstorm, but if its not, that everyone will be ready and safe. If anyone is looking for me...I'll be in my bathtub.

Lately, things have been incredibly ruff and mentally excruciating...... so, when everything seems to be completely coming unhinged, I feel it's best to just give it to God.

If you are going through a lot, you feel like you're unable to get your feet beneath you, and the incoming storms have you nervous as well- feel welcome to Pray with me this Wednesday morning 💜 🙏💜

Heavenly Father,

I acknowledge that You are wise in all Your ways and faithful in all Your promises. Your Word says that if anyone lacks wisdom, he should ask of God, who gives generously to all without finding fault. So today I ask for Your guidance.

Lead me in the decisions that lie before me. Close the doors that are not Your will and open the doors that align with Your purpose. Guard me from acting out of fear, pride, impatience, or selfish ambition. Help me to trust You even when I cannot see the entire path ahead.

Lord, teach me to delight in You so that my desires are shaped by Your heart. Let Your Word be a lamp to my feet and a light to my path. Give me discernment to recognize truth, courage to obey what You reveal, and peace to wait when the answer is not yet clear.

When I am uncertain, remind me that You direct the steps of those who trust You. When I am tempted to lean on my own understanding, help me acknowledge You in all my ways so that You may make my paths straight.

Fill me with the Holy Spirit and guide my thoughts, my words, and my actions. May every decision I make bring honor to Jesus Christ and draw me closer to the person You created me to be.

I surrender my plans, my future, and my desires into Your hands. Your will is better than my own, Your timing is perfect, and Your grace is sufficient.

In the name of Jesus Christ I pray,

Amen.

(Picture is from my garden this morning, the project that is half way done and so random plants are just laying around...... I have to remember that this is our Lord's timeline, and I just have to trust)

Fun fact-

If you purchased a DOT cake this weekend, you were enjoying a cake that was actually GLUTEN FREE!

That's right, my confetti/white cake is and has always been a gluten free cake! I just don't advertise it that way since most people associate gluten free products with being dry and not tasting very good.

But here is why I use a gluten free cake base when making many of my cakes- because gluten makes cakes have a tough crumb and more like a muffin texture then soft and delicate!

Delicious and safe for all to enjoy- huzzah!

NO POWER? LET'S DO THIS FIELD COOKING EDITION- HOOAH!

Huge shout out to Derrick Ray for letting us borrow his generator, so we can get back to getting these orders done! One stove, two fridges plugged into the generator and I'm back in action! TOMORROW PICK UPS WILL GO AS PLANNED BETWEEN 9AM-6PM 👑

Fridges PRAISE GOD held at 37 degrees, and so everything stayed nice and safe. Water we just grabbed a ton of gallons off the shelf from Kroger, and all bowls/mixing utensils are disposable so no worries about no water and dishes.

I know I always say I can cook anything anywhere, but I never thought I'd be backing baking jalapeno cheddar sourdough on a dual fuel smoker/grill, and a stove running off a generator 😎 This kind of experience you can only get at Baked Knightly 💜👑💜
